The problem with Mech being overpowered vs Zerg, and creating the same slow turtle games that the old swarm hosts did. | ||

It's a problem, but it's a problem for another 30 days.. I'd rather see Blizzard focusing their effort on LOTV and not HOTS right now. | ||

So overpowered that the tvz winrate has been sub - 50% for the last two months and terran winning 3 premier tournaments this year. Only because you have problems with mech on ladder doesn't mean it's overpowered. | ||

I feel like giving them credit for making Protoss overall more interesting than it's ever been (which really wasn't too hard haha), especially with the current disruptors which are, IMO, the best designed unit in a long time. I'm also happy with the lurker, the ravager and the new viper. New Terran units are however problematic. Cyclone is, as has been stated lately, bound to either uselessness or complete imbalance. Liberators still have a horrible (HORRIBLE) model and pose a serious overlapping problem to the Tanks. Tanks are long long overdue (five years really) a proper buff. They've been running around it by giving other unsatisfactory space-control options to Terran while they should just have made the Tank better. I feel like it's time to definitely give up on simple changes that would redefine the game as a whole and make it a lot better to watch/play, such as high ground advantage, the removal of the warp-in mechanic or a deeper economy model. LotV might turn out to be a good game... but I don't think it will. | ||

Balance is looking pretty good right now, better players seem to win in each matchup, and we don’t want to risk Zerg being on the stronger side for BlizzCon finals, so we’ve decided not to do a HotS patch. Thank you for your feedback regarding this, and thank you for playtesting in the latest balance test map. Your efforts are always appreciated and helpful when we make these kinds of decisions. | ||

I'm glad they are searching for ways to keep the cyclone, but they really should consider making it cheaper and less supply heavy, some thing like 150/100/2 or 125/75/2, so it can be used as skirmish unit and as cheap AA. Of course with the necessary stat changes to make them balanced. | ||

Also please at least mention some of the other main issues the community has. I.e. oracles, tank drops, warp-prism pickup, po, etc and other abusive tactics which will be no doubt be amplified when the pro start to use them | ||

Its really interesting that people blame swarm hosts for it yet with swarm hosts gone the problem still exists. At least ZvT anyway, ZvP is in an awesome state | ||

Surely any lingering adept all-in issues will be fixed with a return to 5second warpin on the Prism? What happened to not making too many counter active changes at once and seeing how they balance out? Prism + ANOTHER adept nerf and ALSO a MULE buff. It's going to be hard to figure out which changes helped Terran and where. | ||

I'd like to assure you that continued requests for the Cyclone to be removed and a new unit to be put in its place will result in Blizzard hearing LOUD AND VERY CLEAR your desire for the Cyclone to be removed. | ||
